Mother's Day
I'm freaking out right now because I didn't plan my mother's gift very well. I asked her the other day what she wanted and she said she'd like the book A Girl Named Zippy by Haven Kimmel. So we got that for her and now I'm thinking...okay, what else? I bought this Glade Scented Oil Candle set at Costco because I had a coupon, but that just seems bad...bad. Candles are okay, but Glade candles? Why don't I just give her a pack of lottery tickets and a quarter to scratch them with if I'm going to give her something that says "grocery store shopping"?
This is her first Mother's Day as a grandma and I don't have anything truly special for her. We bought these cute picture frames at the dollar store for the great-grandmas and put a pretty picture of Autumn in it. I took the picture yesterday. Autumn's wearing a hat with a Gerber daisy stuck in it. Nathan did this cool Photoshop thing where he took the color out of every part of the photo except the flower. Did I think to get my mother a frame too? Um, no.
Crap. Crap, crap crap.
My Mother's Day is going well. Nathan gave me a Willow Tree figurine of a mama holding her baby and made me French toast for breakfast. That was nice.
Do you think my mom will be able to tell I bought her card at the dollar store?
CRAP!
